This is partially it. There are many knowledgable people on here who are brand spanking new who are as well, if not better versed in the hobby than many of the "veterans." However, it is some of the new members AND veterans who have earned rep points for simply posting pics and saying "yeah I agree!" which I feel skews the 'sticker' system...showing who is helpful and who isn't.

As for myself, if you search my post, I post probably the most nonsense-filled irrelevant replies on this board. I joke most of the time so no, it's not about me. It's about what does the rep REALLy mean?
